He looseth the bond of kings, and girdeth their loins with a girdle.
God holds supreme authority over kings, with power to loose and dissolve the bond of their kingly authority. He can take away their power to rule and then gird their loins with a girdle, binding them as captives. This act toward kings belongs to the broader truth that He governs rulers and nations. In that government He overturns human power and brings leaders under His own control.
